Full Plot Details

An American girl, Kavita, embarks on a spiritual journey back to her ancestral homeland. After a life of unfulfilled materialism and superficiality, her heart calls her to seek out a greater truth. Upon a friend's suggestion, she travels to Majuli Island, a large but remote river island in India. There she discovers a magical wonderland where culture is deeply embedded with performing arts, through centuries of tradition in music, dance, and simple spiritual lives. Along her journey, Kavita encounters a variety of fascinating holy people. A young monk named Ram guides her through an array of satras (temples), tribal villages, and memorable dance and musical performances. Immersed into the stirring culture and religion, she gradually finds that her heart is awakening to something remarkably profound.

Movie Reviews

The New York Times - 5/10 by Rachel SaltzMr. Sarmah's film is well intentioned, but it comes off as a kind of Cliffs Notes to enlightenment.
Variety - 4/10 by Ronnie ScheibPoorly conceived 60-minute picture might have fared better as a more straightforward documentary.
Village Voice - 3/10 by Nick SchagerPurportedly about a quest for spiritual enlightenment and the question of what binds global religions, In Search of God is instead defined by simplistic philosophizing and rampant narcissism.
Los Angeles Times - 2/10 by Gary Goldstein[A] painfully inept, mercifully short documentary.
Slant Magazine - 0/10 by Diego SemereneThis is didactic self-help drivel of the worst kind, as filmmaker Rupam Sarmah creates a return-to-the-origin narrative contaminated by what Kathryn Bond Stockton would surely call "kid Orientalism."
